I actually just spent some time in Florida this past week, visited the Keys and Everglades National Park, and I think I can speak for everyone when I say that it's a real shame that a state with so much ecological diversity and natural beauty is filled with so many Floridians.

Don't worry, the floridians will migrate when sea level rises really kicks in gear. Then they'll be ruining more states.

I know there are floridians in Colorado, because who the gently caress else is going to run the alligator sanctuary?

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Remember the Freedom Convoy?

They did their thing over the weekend. After being told by authorities, "gently caress no, you won't be closing the city" they compromised by agreeing to do a "loop" around DC via 495. They were required to travel at the minimum speed posted.

From what I have seen/heard, the convoy almost immediately fell apart and was a victim of DC traffic.

Yeah it was pretty funny to watch fall apart in real-time. The beltway and MD drivers will crush the spirit of any mortal soul who thinks they can somehow defeat them.

My wife and I had to drive through the city on Saturday and judging by the number of DC and Park Police that were hanging around, they were in no mood to entertain these dipshits. They had a bunch of plows pre-positioned to block roads like they normally do for stuff like SOTU and Inauguration, so I think if they had tried to come into the city, they'd have blocked off the exits leading into downtown till they hosed off.

They're going to feel especially grifted when they wake the gently caress up and realize they could've been hauling loads and making money this entire time rather than wasting time with the MAH FREEDOMS protest of the week.

The irony is these people are likely among the ones complaining about empty shelves "because Socialism" when they themselves could've been contributing to the supply chain. :ironicat:

I'm no expert but seems the Ottawa protests (while awful) were helped by having a somewhat coherent set of grievances so they were more likely to attract sympathy at home and abroad and if the covid precautions were rolled back that would be a sign of victory.

From what is coming from the DC truck protest seems way more qanon incoherence, so in addition to attracting less support their demands are insane so can't be achieved which makes the whole thing more pointless. And also as it is based around nonsense their leadership seems less competent.

They are comparing the stranded Russian convoy to the Freedom Convoy. Both have been ineffective at their goals.

Did they even bother today, or did they take one look at monday rush hour and give up?

Edit: Nevermind, looks like they decided to take a loop at noon. Some real fuckin' hard chargers in this group.

It "happened" over the weekend. They didn't even get to Monday traffic. From what I heard from my parents (who live locally), the convoy was just told, "no" when they mentioned screwing around in DC.

Edit: Just saw your edit, the pain continues for the convoy it seems.

Yeah apparently DC Police was less than enthused and told them to not leave the perimeter. For guys pretending they were gonna pull a Canada protest, they backed off when told no.

I imagine that, given their lived experiences up to this point, it is not an immediately bad assumption that cops would join them. They are just so far up their own asses with Q lunacy that they lack basic social understanding of things like "Our bullshit killed some of these guys on Jan 6, they probably don't support us."

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court and the North Carolina Supreme Court intervened and either requested/mandated good-rear end redistricting maps for the Democrats.

Naturally, Republicans appealed to the Supreme Court, trying to claim the State Courts had no power. It was a bullshit argument...

... even too far for this bullshit Supreme Court, at least right now. 0 votes to halt the PA map, 3 for the NC map.

Almost.

SCOTUS has ruled that both criteria are necessary.

Requiring drives on the Beltway is cruel but not unusual. Therefore, it is constitutional.
